    Hi, my loves!! I completely understand that the general consensus is that luxury items are overpriced and to be honest we are paying for "designer" brand names. However even as a lux lover myself there are still many luxury items I don't think are worth the price tag BUT I have some fab alternatives for you! I personally own heaps of these alternatives so I hope you find the video helpful and interesting. Remember BUY what YOU love! If you love it then it's worth it! x Mel

    Hi, my love! I have been watching you everyday and checking all the time to see if you have any new vlogs. I subscribed to a lot of fashion vloggers' channels but I unsubscribed to most of them, if not all, and kept yours. I couldn't keep up watching a lot. I chose to keep yours for reasons (1) you are fun to watch (2) you focus on the products and explains each of its features (3) you give tips as well as pros and cons of buying (4) you give your honest opinion on a product and being upfront if it's not worth buying it (5) you show a lot of affordable but really nice products that I haven't seen elsewhere and (6) I feel the genuiness in you. Thank you for sharing your personal life with your viewers. I have been very inspired with your humble begginings. I am not one to give reviews but I felt the need to share with you my thoughts and feelings about you and what you show to your viewers. I will always keep an eye on your new vlogs. Keep it coming Mel! You're just the sweetest 🙂

      @@MelinMelbourne I know, it’s crazy. A lot of Zimmerman pieces seem to end up on eBay…I’m guessing people buy them for a special occasion then, perhaps, have buyer’s remorse at the cost and try to recoup some funds. Understandable. Alemais is a far superior brand. Love your show and your wonderful style and advice. Much love to you and your family 🥰

I love the Mirta Ray bag so much more than the Hermes bag.🥰 And the Valentino mini bag is super cute!😍 The price difference between the two YSL bags is ridiculous! They are almost the same!
    You are also right with the Chloë tote bag and the Marc Jacobs tote bag…but I do like the Chloë one also very much..I can never afford that one but maybe I can find a preloved one or Marc Jacobs one.😊

    People buy the items that they like or some items may have been gifted to them. There are many luxury brands that do things differently. That is why we have many choices when it comes to luxury goods. All of the bags are beautiful and useful for the minimalist to a person that needs to take the kitchen sink with them wherever they go there’s a bag out there for everyone😊

I bought it in the gold color 😊😊 I couldn’t use the code for it but I’m guessing it’s because I’m not a first time customer like it says in the description or because it’s bag and it won’t accept the code. Still, like you said, it’s a really good price compared to other brands 😊 also you answered all of my questions in terms of what it fits, if it fits my IPhone13 pro max and how it looks on the body, so Thank you! 😄😊😊 very happy with my purchase 🙌🏼🙌🏼

    Hi, Mel! As always lovely video! The problem with YSL pouch is that only Samorga inserts and chains are good, but did you see the cost of delivery? I do not recall precisely, but the set of insert, chain like YSL and crazy shipping cost (minimum 60 usd and increases when you order more items) like around 200 usd, and it does not make much sense to play this game.
    BTW idea for your next collabs -not discount, but free shipping

      They should do something about shipping cost, it is simply offensive in 2022 for small bag accessories

    The LV Neverfull always makes me think of a diaper bag. Great bag if you're a Mama of babies/toddlers, but I can't imagine carrying it just for myself & my own stuff.

    Bought the YSL clutch last weekends after watching your video last week. I bought the black classic one, wanted to buy the trio print but noticed both side of the shape are not symmetrical thus bought the classic black one. The quality is amazing, comparable to Chanel Bag. So happy to own my 1st YSL clutch at such a amazing price although i purchase full pricr from the boutique. Thanks Mel for the recommendation. 🥰

    🐱 Hi Mel,
    There's also a Marc Jacobs that looks like the Neverfull. That's the one that I own before but I handed it to mom because she likes it. As for the clothing, I agree that there're a lot of options that won't hurt the pocket. Anyway, it's in how we carry it that truly matters. 😘❤

    Another great substitution for a LV Neverfull are the MCM Visetos Totes that are between $700-$800. Better quality in my opinion.

    The leather Chloe woody tote feels like it’s made of cardboard with a thin layer of leather. Their recent releases other than the Marcie items feel super cheap. The east/west lightweight tote bag feels like a discount store bag…so cheesy for $1700.
